Charting Format
Assessment at the start of the shift Changes in mental, psychological,
physiological conditions Reactions to procedures or medications Teaching
-Document what was taught
and the client’s response
![Page 12: Doc and Report](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/55cf8ef5550346703b97687a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Charting Systems
Source-oriented– Data entered according to the source [i.e. nurse,
MD, social worker, respiratory therapy etc.]– Form of charting is a narrative– Overall picture is difficult to ascertain
![Page 13: Doc and Report](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/55cf8ef5550346703b97687a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Narrative Charting
Used with flow sheets and other systems Chronological data quickly documented Familiar form Used in all types of settings
![Page 14: Doc and Report](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/55cf8ef5550346703b97687a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Narrative Charting Disadvantages
Lack of a systematic structure hinders making relationships between data
Requires time May lack information concerning client
outcomes Quality Assurance monitoring more difficult Relevant data found in several places
![Page 15: Doc and Report](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/55cf8ef5550346703b97687a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Charting Systems
Problem-oriented
-Data organized based on problems
-Each member of the health team documents on the same problem
-The overall picture can be seen easily
-Focus is on the client and not on the person or department reporting
![Page 16: Doc and Report](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/55cf8ef5550346703b97687a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Problem-Oriented Medical RecordsPOMR
Focus is on the client One set of progress notes is used by all
persons caring for the client Format is called SOAP or SOAPIE
![Page 17: Doc and Report](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/55cf8ef5550346703b97687a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Charting Systems
Computer-Assisted -Data legible
-Quick access to data and information between departments
-Easily retrievable
-Quick assess to data
-Confidentiality maintained
-Bedside computers increase accuracy and speed of charting

Disadvantages of Computer-Assisted Charting
Expensive to purchase and update Problems with “downtime” interfere in
charting and receiving information Increase charting time if not enough
terminals Reliance on technology instead questioning
data which may be wrong
